DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure are more clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure. It is apparent that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, but are not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present disclosure without creative efforts fall within the scope of protection of the embodiments of the present disclosure.

In related technologies, when the UE determines beam failure for a certain cell and the number of times of beam failure indicated by the physical layer reaches a preset number, the BFR procedure may be initiated through a random access procedure in this cell. When the number of times of initiating a random access procedure reaches a maximum preset number, the MAC layer will indicate occurrence of a problem in random access to a Radio Resource Control (RRC) layer, information may be reported to the base station subsequently, and the reported information indicates that there is a problem in a serving cell of the UE and the cause for the problem is random access.

At present, although the reported information may indicate that the cause for the problem in the serving cell of the UE is random access, it does not indicate whether the problem of random access is resulted from BFR or other causes. For the problem in random access resulted from BFR and the problem of random access problem resulted from other causes, the base station deals with them differently. Therefore, based on the information reported in the related technologies, the base station cannot accurately select a processing manner to process the problem occurring in the serving cell of the UE.

FIG. 1 is a schematic flow diagram of an information transmission method according to some embodiments of the disclosure. The information transmission method shown in the present embodiment may be applied to a user equipment (UE), such as a mobile phone and a tablet computer. The user may use Long Term Evolution (LTE) communication or New Radio (NR) communication.

As shown in FIG. 1 , the information transmission method may include the following steps:

In S1, a random access procedure is initiated to a base station through a second cell, when a beam failure recovery procedure is initiated for a first cell, wherein the second cell is the first cell or a cell other than the first cell.

In some embodiments, the UE may monitor the first cell for signal quality of beams. The base station may indicate a beam of a cell that the UE should monitor. If the signal quality (such as signal strength) of the monitored beam(s) is lower than the preset signal quality, the physical layer of the UE may indicate beam failure to an MAC layer. When the number of times of beam failure indicated by the physical layer reaches a certain number, the MAC layer may trigger a beam failure recovery procedure.

In the beam failure recovery procedure, the UE may initiate a random access procedure to the base station through the first cell, or may initiate a random access procedure to the base station through a cell other than the first cell. If the first cell is a primary cell (PCell) or a primary secondary cell (PSCell) among the serving cells of the UE, the user equipment may initiate a random access procedure to the base station through the first cell. If the first cell is a serving cell other than the primary cell and the primary secondary cell among the serving cells of the UE, the UE may initiate a random access procedure to the base station through a cell other than the first cell, such as the primary cell or the primary secondary cell.

In S2, indication information indicating that a problem exists in a cell group, to which the second cell belongs, is transmitted to the base station, if the number of times that the random access procedure is initiated reaches a preset number and the random access procedure is not completed, where the indication information indicates that the cause for a problem existing in the cell group is a failure of the random access caused by the beam failure recovery procedure.

In some embodiments, if the number of time that the random access procedure is initiated by the UE to the base station through the second cell reaches a preset number and the random access procedure is not completed, for example, if the number of times that a preamble for random access is sent by the UE to the base station through a first message (MSG1) in the random access procedure reaches a preset number, and the base station does not feed back a second message (MSG2) in the random access procedure, the UE may transmit indication information to the base station, so that the base station learns that there is a problem in the cell group, to which the second cell belongs.

The indication information further indicates that the cause for a problem existing in the cell group is failure of the random access caused by the beam failure recovery procedure, so that the base station may determine the cause for the failure of the random access, and ensure reasonability of subsequent configuration of the base station. For example, for the failure of the random access not caused by the beam failure recovery procedure, only the parameters of a Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) of the second cell may be reconfigured. For the failure of the random access caused by the beam failure recovery procedure, not only parameters reconfiguration of the PUCCH of the second cell is performed, but also beam reconfiguration is performed (for example, the UE is configured to monitor beams of cells other than the first cell).

FIG. 2 is a schematic flow diagram of another information transmission method according to some embodiments of the disclosure. As shown in FIG. 2 , on the basis of the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 , the second cell is a primary cell, the cell group is a primary cell group, and the step of transmitting indication information indicating that a problem exists in a cell group, to which the second cell belongs, to the base station includes:

In S21, radio link failure of the primary cell group is recorded in log information, wherein the log information includes the indication information.

In S22, under a situation that a communication connection with the base station has been established, the log information is transmitted to the base station with which the communication connection is established.

In some embodiments, if the number of times that the random access procedure is initiated by the UE to the base station through the primary cell reaches a preset number, and the random access procedure is not completed, at this time, the communication connection between the UE and the base station is disconnected. Therefore, log information of Radio Link Failure (RLF) of a Master Cell Group (MCG), to which the primary cell belongs, may be recorded firstly. The log information may include the indication information, and may also include other information, such as the position and the speed of the UE.

In some embodiments, the situation that a communication connection has been established between the UE and the base station includes: the UE establishes the communication connection with the base station, or the UE recoveries the communication connection with the base station. In these two situations, the UE may send a notification to the base station to notify the base station that the UE has recorded the radio link failure in the log information. After receiving the notification, the base station may send a request for acquiring the log information to the UE. After receiving the request, the UE transmits the log information to the base station, so that the base station determines, according to the indication information in the log information, that the cause for a problem existing in the primary cell group is the failure of the random access caused by the beam failure recovery procedure.

It is to be noted that the base station with which the UE has established the communication connection may be the base station which indicates a beam of a cell that the UE should monitor in the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 , or may be another base station.

In some embodiments, the indication information is represented by a first preset value of a cause field of radio link failure of the primary cell group.

In some embodiments, in the case of radio link failure of the primary cell group, the cause for the radio link failure may be represented by the cause field of radio link failure. The Radio Link Failure-cause (RLF-Cause) field may be included in a VarRLF-Report variable, and the VarRLF-Report variable is configured to store information of radio link failure or handover failure. The indication information indicates that the cause for a problem existing in the primary cell group is the failure of the random access caused by the beam failure recovery procedure, the indication information being different from information represented by the cause field of radio link failure in related technologies. Therefore, through the value of the cause field of radio link failure different from that in the related technologies, that is, relative to the RLF-Cause field in the related technologies, one more value (i.e., a first preset value) may be set, and the indication information is represented by the first preset value.

FIG. 3 is a schematic flow diagram of another information transmission method according to some embodiments of the disclosure. As shown in FIG. 3 , on the basis of the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 , the second cell is a primary secondary cell, the cell group is a secondary cell group, and the step of transmitting indication information indicating that a problem exists in a cell group, to which the second cell is belongs, to the base station includes the following step S23.

In S23, the indication information is transmitted to the base station according to a preset secondary cell group failure reporting procedure.

In some embodiments, if the number of time that the random access procedure has been initiated by the UE to the base station through the primary secondary cell reaches a preset number, and the random access procedure is not completed, there may still be a communication connection between the UE and the base station. Therefore, the indication information may be transmitted to the base station according to a preset secondary cell group (SCG) failure reporting procedure.

The preset secondary cell group failure reporting procedure may be pre-configured by the base station. For example, the base station may configure what are to be transmitted to the base station and a sequence in which they are to be transmitted, when the UE determines the secondary cell group failure. This is not the main inventive point of the present disclosure and will not be described here.

In some embodiments, the indication information is represented by a second preset value of a type field in a secondary cell group failure report.

In some embodiments, in the case of secondary cell group failure (such as radio link failure), the cause for radio link failure may be represented by the failure Type field in the secondary cell group failure report. The indication information indicates that the cause for a problem existing in the secondary cell group is the failure of the random access which is caused by the beam failure recovery procedure, the indication information being different from information represented by the type field in the secondary cell group failure report in related technologies. Therefore, through the value of the type field in the secondary cell group failure report different from that in the related technologies, that is, relative to the failure Type field corresponding to the related technologies, one more value, (i.e., a second preset value) may be set, and the indication information is represented by the second preset value.

Corresponding to the embodiments of the above information transmission method, the present disclosure further provides embodiments of an information transmission device.

In some embodiments, the second cell is a primary secondary cell, the cell group is a secondary cell group, and the indication transmission module is configured to transmit the indication information to the base station according to a preset secondary cell group failure reporting procedure.

In some embodiments, the indication information is represented by a second preset value of a type field in a secondary cell group failure report.
